If you're in control of the php.ini file, there is almost certainly a setting in there you can use. But I doubt this is something overridable in individual scripts. > I have seen upload scripts with some kind of callback to the server to > avoid a time out. Yes, but uploads are handled differently than these scripts. I'm pretty sure your PHP script is not called until the entire HTTP request is received. Callbacks are probably built with something watching for the upload to a file to be completed, although that's a complete guess. > There must be something i can do right? Well you, of course. If you can update the php.ini, I'm sure you can fix this. But that would mean that your server might hang, for say ten minutes on other requests that are not processing, just stuck. I think the solution I suggested before would not be terribly difficult to work out. Good luck, -- Scott
